The so-called "lack of desire" is essentially a self-protection mechanism activated by the brain to avoid being hurt again; for long-term losers, hope is the biggest risk. 1. Learned helplessness cuts off the neural circuits between "effort" and "result." 2. Poverty consumes cognitive bandwidth, making long-term planning impossible. 3. Diminishing the value of money is a psychological compensation to maintain the remaining self-esteem. 4. Breaking the deadlock doesn't rely on enlightenment, but on small actions to reshape the sense of control. In the past, I was in debt but addicted to cheap entertainment, viewing opportunities to make money as scams, and covering up my incompetence with "calm and steady is true." Later, I stopped self-attack, starting to regain tiny control over life by doing laundry and wiping tables. Now I understand that true change doesn't come from thinking it through and then acting, but from forcing the body to move first, using real feedback to activate dead desires. Why, even though you're clearly broke and burdened with huge debts, would you rather spend a day in cheap, satisfying stories than dare to have a hint of desire to make money? Lying flat is not because of laziness, but a "saving mode" in the brain caused by cognitive resource depletion. Don't expect to turn things around by just "boosting your spirit"; the real solution is to stop grand plans, and start with a small task that can immediately bring a positive feedback of one dollar—focusing on actions, not intentions.
